Must Love Pekes is a blog for those who love Pekingese, their looks, their antics, their personalities. It is written by me, Linda, and I have been rescuing Pekingese for over 15 years. Lots of them have gone through our home. We have loved them all.

Furby was not cared for well-- he has a lot of skin issues (nothing contagious).

Furby enjoys his buddies-- he has on a special e-collar to keep him from chewing. (I later found that he could get around it.)

He likes comfy places and being with Rocky is better.

His left eye never developed, so it's a tiny one. He had a bad right eye when he came to us last week, but with two types of drops, it is SO much better. He is seeing enough to get around and likes to be where I am. He will follow me everywhere.

I don't know if Furby can hear. I am still evaluating him. He is not aggressive and just likes to hang out and enjoy the day. He found Starlight's bouncy seat and climbed in. I wonder what she thought of that!

If you have in your heart to save a senior who just needs a place to be, he just might be your little man. You can see our adoption application on: Click here:

THIS MORNING: Furby had a bounce in his step and was happy and excited. I think this one is going to surprise us all!!

Mr. Niles came into rescue in 2011. We got him from a Maryland shelter for another group and they did not come through with a transport. It happens-- most rescues are very good about helping each other.

Mr. Niles was in his foster home for awhile. I don't know why he wasn't adopted, but his foster mom, Dani, really fell in love with him. Paige loved him, too. He was part of the family.

He was about ten years old then, so he was going on 16 or so.

His friend, Merit, was with him in this picture.

Mr. Niles was a beloved member of the family-- I know his moms will miss him so much. Run free now, little one.

They all spent a few days at the vet-- being checked over and having a good clean. ;-)

We took them from one owner, but as much as we would like to keep them together, we rarely find people who will adopt multiples. We would like to keep them together, so even if they are not fostered together, someone can apply for two or three of them.

I brought them all to my home to meet my crew. It's was a Peke-fest! Starlight, of course, did not participate haha.

They all did great! Rocky is looking at me-- he is timid, and so sweet. He just wants to be held and loved on. (If you met him in person, you would be drawn in to this sweet man!)

Baby Girl explored the yard and checked things out.

Baby Girl was born on in December of 2005, so she is 11 years old. She is only 12 pounds, a little one.

She needs a dental and also needs to be spayed to avoid pyometra. This is a very serious, often fatal problem in unspayed females. Click here:
Pyometra & Uterus Infections in Dogs Baby Girl does have a heart murmur, but does not need meds yet.

Baby Girl was sitting on my daughter's lap and Rocky had to come over and join them.

I love this picture of her.

They are a sweet group, just need time for updating of dentals, etc.

Beach Bit came over to meet them and they did fine. Sugar Bit, on the other hand, will be in the playroom-- she is "gentle" but still a toddler. Baby Girl is now in a wonderful foster home and will be on medical hold until she is ready for adoption. Stay tuned for updates!
